What BB cream is actually?
BB cream is the hottest beauty products in the world right now.
Yesterday I just bought a Korean BB cream from a beauty center and tried on it. It gives a very smooth and natural looking and long lasting. I like it but after 2 hours I find it quite oily, so I did some research on BB cream online. I thought can share my research for those who are new or wish to try on BB cream but no ideas on which to choose.
Let me brief you on BB cream history:
Blemish balm cream known as BB cream was first created by German dermatologists, and is a treatment foundation cream for those who have undergone skin-peeling treatments (such as laser treatment). It was made popular by Korean celebrities.
BB cream serve as a makeup base, foundation, moisturizer and sun protections. Not only do they cover blemishes, they also have soothing, healing properties. Not all BB cream have all these functions,there are many types of BB cream some need to apply after moisturizer, some without the SPF or PA.
Benefits of BB cream:
- helps tighten pores and improve overall skin texture
- effectively controlling sebum production to give you oil shine-free skin.
- anti-aging and whitening effect
- save time as it is a skincare/healing product combined with make-up
- affordable and easy to use
- very light compared to foundation
- long lasting
I prefer natural or organic ingredient, so I recommend...
* Elianto Miracle Multiplex BB cream @RM49
* Skinfood BB cream: Oily skin - Aloe BB cream @ Rm54.90
Search for the ones that suitable for yourself, you might consider ...
1) the properties & ingredients such as moisturizing, sun protector, oil-free
2) the scent, some are fragrance free, some are scented
According to the beauty consultant BB cream is not really a skin care, she advises:
1) apply moisturizer and/or day cream ( sun protector) before BB cream although it comes with moisturizing or SPF
2) apply very light powder for longer lasting
Trust me, you will never regret.
Happy hunting, trying.. whatever.. ^_^

Woman in life
T his is a beautiful article:
The woman in your life...very well expressed...
Tomorrow you may get a working woman, but you should marry with these facts as well.
Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are;
Who is earning almost as much as you do;
One, who has dreams and aspirations just as
you have because she is as human as you are;
One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like you or your
Sister haven't, as she was busy in studies and competing in a system
that gives no special concession to girls for their culinary achievements
One, who has lived and loved her parents & brothers & sisters, almost as
much as you do for 20-25 years of her life;
One, who has bravely agreed to leave behind all that, her home, people who
love her, to adopt your home, your family, your ways and even your family ,name
One, who is somehow expected to be a master-chef from day #1, while you
sleep oblivious to her predicament in her new circumstances, environment
and that kitchen
One, who is expected to make the tea, first thing in the morning and cook
food at the end of the day, even if she is as tired as you are, maybe more,
and yet never ever expected to complain; to be a servant, a cook, a mother,
a wife, even if she doesn't want to; and is learning just like you are as
to what you want from her; and is clumsy and sloppy at times and knows that
you won't like it if she is too demanding, or if she learns faster than you;
One, who has her own set of friends, and that includes boys and even men at
her workplace too, those, who she knows from school days and yet is willing
to put all that on the back-burners to avoid your irrational jealousy,
unnecessary competition and your inherent insecurities;
Yes, she can drink and dance just as well as you can, but won't, simply
because you won't like it, even though you say otherwise
One, who can be late
from work once in a while when deadlines, just like
yours, are to be met;
One, who is doing her level best and wants to make this most important
relationship in her entire life a grand success, if you just help her some
and trust her;
One, who just wants one thing from you, as you are the only one she knows
in your entire house - your unstinted support, your sensitivities and most
importantly - your understanding, or love, if you may call it.
But not many guys understand this......
Please appreciate "HER"
I hope you will do....

SynarGym at Sooka Sentral
Recently, I joined this fitness center at Sooka Sentral located at KL Sentral.
Just want to share some of my opinions on this gym.
Membership fees - A bit pricey(RM120 & above)compared to other fitness center as they do not have any contract to sign. The staffs are friendly and not pushy at all, so it is not so commercialized like other fitness center.
Equipments - advanced equipments. There is rock climbing wall there.
Environment & facilities- Nice and quiet. I usually go there on weekday after office hour. Not crowded, very nice place to workout.
Group exercise- there are quite number of fitness class to join like yoga, pilates, body combats, body pump, belly dance, spinning class, etc. Each class only with 1-2 sessions per week except for body pump & yoga.
Overall, I think this gym is suitable for beginners as you may try 1-3 months membership before committing yourself for a 1 or 2 years gym membership at certain FC. I personally think that the most important is the LOCATION. No matter how good the place is, the long journey will just wipe off your determination to go for the gym. So make it convenient for yourself.
